U.S., Nov. 13 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07932119) titled 'GLP-1 Receptor Agonists in the Surgical Patient: Prevalence, Epidemiology, and Pulmonary Complications' on Oct. 27.

Brief Summary: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) use among adult elective surgical patients is increasing. The exact prevalence is unclear, and the possible association with pulmonary aspiration is a major concern. This study was designed to quantify the prevalence of GLP-1 RA use and the incidence of perioperative aspiration among other 30-day pulmonary complications in adult elective surgical patients at a single institution in 2025.
